Came to know something interesting . Suppose you created an email id in gmail like first.last@gmail.com. Now whether someone mails at first.last@gmail.com or firstlast@gmail.com or you place dots at any other place or remove them, the mail will land in your inbox. Reason: Google’s system ignores dots. But at the time of login you need to use the actual email id which you have created.

Said that its clear that when someone has already registered as first.last now no-one can use any other combination like firstlast or firstlas.t as everything has already been associated with your id.
